The pessimist in me says these are simply ploys to sell more gear, but the messages and involvement are there. Plus, their "exclusive" collection (Michigan could be a part of this) is manufactured in the US.

Kugler may/may not be as physically developed, but at the moment, we're asking for the interior line to put a hat on anyone other than air and deadspace. I'm more worried about just having someone in the right place than whether they are physically dominant yet.

Can Braden/Bars figure into this equation? Hell, can Bryant play center?
